Fuhs Knocks One Out With Big Slick
Danny Fuhs had Ace-King against his opponent’s pocket sixes and all of the money went into the middle. The flop paired Fuhs’ ace and it was good enough as the board finished off with the 7
and 9
. With the win, Fuhs elevated his chips over the 1,000,000 mark and is the chip leader.
Adam White Takes Back to Back Hits
Adam White saw his chip count go from close to top of the charts to not so shabby in merely 2 hands. The first hand hand saw him face off against Steve Ma, who suckered him in about 100,000 in chips before he finally folded on the turn, giving Ma’s chip count a boost. On the ensuing hand the player in seat 2 took White all-in for roughly 100,000 in a hand that featured a showdown with white holding an A-J combo and the player in seat 2 showing an A-8. The board showed a 10
310810 giving the player in seat 2 the advantage and taking White’s chip count down yet another substantial amount. After leading early, White has fallen to 10th in overall chip counts.
Phong goes wrong
Phong Huynh hit a cold streak in the closing hands of todays play. Huynh faced back to back hands in which he took substantial hits in his stack. The first hand featured a showdown in which Huynh held pocket k’s but fell short to the player in seat 9, who was all-in at an amount of 236,000 with a pair of A’s. Immediately after Huynh faced yet another all-in showdown from the player in seat 4. In this hand the player in seat 4 flipped pocket A’s and Huuynh showed A-9. The board came 2
357Q giving the player in seat for the win and slashing down Huynh stack another 150,000 dropping him out of the top 10 in chip counts.
